Vragen
Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the German (Deutsch)
Hart1, wat is er?
- Ik ben verliefd, dat is er.
Hoe is je stemming dan?
- Ik sta in vuur en vlam.
Kan slaap je niet verkwikken?
- Zo' n slaap vol angst en schrikken?
Krijg je 't niet in de hand?
- Wat wil je, met zo'n brand!
Ik hoop, de tijd zal 't keren.
- Alleen de dood zal 't weren.
Wat bied j' om haar te zien?
- Mij, jou, 't al bovendien!
Je weet niet wat je zegt!
- Ik ben verliefd, ja echt.
Houd je verstand bijeen!
- Dan word 'k zo koud als steen.
Je zult er door teloor gaan!
- Ach, laat het gauw dan doorgaan!
